[META] About lemm.ee shutting down

Lemm.ee (cartographyanarchy's home instance) is shutting down and I love this community so I'd like to ask the mods of this community to lock it -> redirect the people to a new community on another instance of their choosing.

Locking this community would be nice because even after lemm.ee shuts down this community and its history will be visible on other instances, but if I, for example, post something here afterwards it wont federate since lemm.ee (the community's host instance) no longer takes posts from other instances and federate the new content to others. My new posts will only be visible to my fellow sopulis.

If possible would love if it could be on an instance that is not lemmy.world or lemmy.ml

:)
- I welcome cartographyanarchy to sopuli, we've got !map_enthusiasts@sopuli.xyz already, but I'm biased :)
Pinging active mods: @The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world and @meep_launcher@lemm.ee.
- I'll defer to @meep_launcher@lemm.ee on this one, since they set this whole community up.
  
  It's a shame that we can't merge all of our content here with a new community.
  
  Someone mentioned in another thread that Piefed has a "move community" function that helps facilitate this process.
  
  Edit: info about that feature: https://piefed.social/post/667044
  
  Thanks for pitching in - sounds good!
  
  And yeah that is truly a shame. Same thing happened with !sillydrawingrequests@lemmy.autism.place and while we made !sillydrawingrequests@sopuli.xyz many of the new instances dont show the beautiful creations that people made in the original community :(
  
  Hey thanks all, sorry I've been a bit slammed with work.
  
  Considering that we popped up to 1k followers in about a year, I'm confident we can get things back up pretty fast.
  
  I'll get a new community set up this weekend. If I don't, either harass me or just take over, I'm currently producing a musical and music directing 4 different shows so I'm pretty pooped.
RIP lemm.ee
for what it's worth, dbzer0 seems to be very anarchy-friendly
- Dbzer0 is another awesome choice indeed!
sh.itjust.works could be a good choice for an unserious community, they have a bunch of meme ones already
- Yeah sh.itjust.works is also great for this. So far suggestions include:
  
  lemmy.dbzer0.con
  
  sh.itjust.works
  
  sopuli.xyz
  
  piefed.social
  
  I'm happy with any of those. Hope mods have some free time to work on this before the shutdown.
